A Frozen Surprise At School By Guest Blogger
Although the Frozen frenzy has died down, the movie will always be special to
me. One ordinary day last December turned out to be the most exciting day of
2013.
Our principal announced that a very special guest would be stopping by to visit
our school at the end of the day. As the students gathered in the lobby, I braced
myself with anticipation. Thoughts of who it could be raced through my mind. Our
principal began to introduce the guest and I knew it could only be one person.
The kids exploded with deafening excitement. I couldn’t believe my eyes, there he
was, Kristoff, I mean, Jonathan Groff.
How did Jonathan Groff end up visiting an elementary school in a small rural town
in Pennsylvania? Jonathan’s mother Julie is a physical education teacher in our
school district and Jonathan is a graduate of our high school.
Jonathan treated us to a rendition of Baby, It’s Cold Outside” accompanied by his
elementary music teacher. He presented our school with a signed Frozen poster
and led us in a sing a long of We Wish You a Merry Christmas. When it was over,
Jonathan gave each of us a signed photo and posed for pictures with students and
staff.
Each time I hear someone talk about Frozen, I smile and remember that special
afternoon. Oh, and I take a peek at my special Frozen photo.
Hi Main Street gang! My name is Carolyn Crouse. I was a stay at home mom for 9
years and went back to work a couple of years ago. I’m currently a reading
teacher, and although every day brings new challenges, I love my job. As you may
have guessed, I love all things Disney and continue to pass that love to my
daughter. Thank you for letting me share my story with you!
Peace, love and Disney, Carolyn
